BONUS VIDEO: Modding the Hand386 with an IPS Display
Added 2023-07-27 18:15:10 +0000 UTCHello Patreon friends! I recently got wind of an IPS display that's supposedly a drop in replacement for the Hand386. So, let's drop it in!

2023-07-27 18:51:13 +0000 UTCI have what I think is an identical IPS screen on the way slowly from AliExpress, and it was only $11. So the additional cost for an IPS over the original screen probably could have been even less!

2023-07-27 18:46:33 +0000 UTCYour mouse not working may have to do with the fact that when the Hand386’s battery gets too low, it loses its BIOS settings. And it defaults to disabling the PS/2 mouse for some reason…

2023-07-27 18:42:16 +0000 UTCIt makes me wonder what the original screen cost... and why an extra $15-20 on an item like this wasn't justified from the outset?
